Online Comics


Dilbert
-- A fan favorite and almost a survival guide to dealing with mere mortals in the realm of business. It's pure stress relief some days, ah tells ya...

Chopping Block -- Is there anything sweeter than Jason Voorhees? If you thought that the answer to that was 'no', think again: there's a new splatterpunk in town and this guy has to deal with all the troubles and travails that we do in life... in addition to being a psychotic! How tough is that?


Something Positive
-- A sweet little comic by a friend of mine. It's there to provide you with your daily affirmation of life and tries its best to never offend anyone. The universal message of this comic seems to be 'be KIND to one another, and let's all just be FRIENDS!'
Yes, I'm playing with you, but I'm feeling nasty this morning, and it fills my heart with glee that someone might just have clicked the link without reading this paragraph.

The Necronomicon -- This one just keeps growing on me. It's a nice, light strip that never takes itself too seriously. And the characters keep turning Japanese...
Update: This comic is no more. It has ceased to be. This... is an ex... webcomic. However, the archives are still up and you can read some of his random works there, periodically.

Alice -- One girl, one friend and an imagination. See where the mind eye takes you! It's a cute little strip that really is a fun read. I like how the world unfolds.

Lowest Common Denominator -- Gods, I had to start reading this one just because its main character crossed over into absolutely everything else. It's a great comic on its own, though it updates muay slowly.


Doctor Lobster
-- Read it. It's one of those comics that absolutely shouldn't work, but somehow makes me laugh almost constantly. Sometimes it goes a touch past my Funny Bone and into the dark place, but hey, nobody's perfect.

Freighter Tails -- Furries in space! I have high hopes for this one. It hasn't gotten too far as yet, but let's take a look at what's going on.

Guardian Angel -- A fairly sweet comic strip that goes absolutely upside down until you're wondering how things could get any worse! The characters have grown up nicely in the time that we've seen them. Raises some interesting questions without pissing off my sensibilities.

Nukees -- THESE people are our future? We're doomed. Robotic ants will take over the world and we'll be at the mercy of... THEM!


Ozy and Millie
-- Another sweet comic that has an uncompromising attitude towards the points it makes. This one keeps a good sense of childlike wonder while not hiding that sometimes it really hurts to be different. If you were ever the one picked on in school, you'll find at least one strip in this archive with which you can utterly empathize.

Untitled Again -- "Oh you know my name is Simon...and the things I draw come truuue..." (yes, you have to be either Canadian or British to get that reference). It's another comic that makes you empathize with its protagonist, who's the befuddled anyman... only his drawings take on a life of their own!

When I Grow Up -- Just when you think it can't get any worse, it does! There's absolutely no way to explain why I like this comic, except perhaps that it manages to take the absolutely unreal and then go even further over the top with it.

The Anykey -- A BeOS fanatic's strip! Still in its infancy and hasn't hit its stride yet, but hey, everything starts somewhere.
Update: Not that it ever will... the Anykey is now dead, though archives remain. We'll missya...


Penny Arcade
-- A friend of mine once called this strip 'pure Id release'. Well they cover Unreal and the Dreamcast too! (Dodges rotten tomatoes) Sharp, witty commentary on just about anything, with a decided bias towards geek culture. Don't expect them to hold anything back and be sure to read the commentary afterwards.

Clan Bob -- More computer humour with some great continuing storylines going on. It seems that Jone the demon-babe has become a fan favorite, given how absolutely everyfragginfan artist has managed to do art about her...

Down to Earth -- Heaven and Hell! Demons! Death! Star Trek! Somehow they all meet in the strip that we call Down to Earth.

Melonpool -- Aliens stranded on Earth? Impossible! Both sweet and witty, this comic evokes the feel of when comics were great (read, the late 80s, early 90s).

Schlock Mercenary -- A razor-wit humour is a good attribute to have when you're making fun of the noble profession of Soldier of Fortune, mostly because you'll need to laugh as they're blowing you apart. How sad. This is a wonderful comic that honestly has never let me down for a laugh.

Ubersoft -- If you're ever frustrated at Microsoft, please, relax here. This strip manages to let us laugh at the biggest forces of Banality in existance and that really fires my Grump soul.

Dork Tower -- Role playing... computers... and work. Sadly, half of my friends are like this...

The Bad Boys of CS -- More computer jokes! University jokes! And more! This comic started off fairly mediocre but has shot up to one of my favorites. The flash anime that they do isn't always pretty, but it captures the feel of the anime that they're trying to copy.

College Roomies From Hell -- This is one of those comics that manages to sustain a fairly epic storyline without ever losing its touch with humanity. The writer is wonderfully enigmatic when it's needed.

Clan of the Cats -- A witch-lycanthrope explores the world of magic in our modern world. Another epic storyline that almost forces you to fall in love with Chelsea, the main character.

GPF -- Wonderful! Very sympathetic characters in great stories who work at a software company. Really worth reading from the beginning to see just how much it's evolved.


PVP!
-- Delightfully wicked at times, the writer of this comic's heart is always in the right place when he pens his work. Very insightful on the nature of comics, games and life in general, it's hard not to nod in understanding while reading.

It's Walky! -- Not quite as good as its prior incarnation as Roomies, It's Walky nonetheless preserves the characterization and gripping tales that made Roomies one of my obsessions.

MegaTokyo -- Another friend has said that MegaTokyo is a way of life. I must agree... it has the best art that I've ever seen on a webcomic, and catches the feeling of a manga book. I really can't recommend this one highly enough.

Cool Cat Studio -- This comic blends a unique set of characters with some very fascinating peeks into the supernatural. And all of it's set against the backdrop of an art studio.

Fans -- Fantastic art (ignore the pun). Fantastic storylines. Fantastic everything. Willing to play around with format. This strip is one of the best things ever to hit the net. It deals with a group of science-fiction/fantasy fans who find themselves slowly caught up in darker machinations. Continuing storylines! Evolving characters! I'm in love!


Avalon
-- If you think I'm mad about characters, you're right. There's no supernatural in this. No fantastic events. Just characters, going to school, interacting and building their lives together. If you think that this makes for a boring comic then you're not me. This comic has the most brilliant characters I've ever seen in a comic and keeps me coming back for more.

User Friendly -- One of my earliest comics, this one has been going on for a long, long time. It's got a sine curve of quality, but really it's never let me down. Check it out and see what you've been missing.


Sluggy Freelance
-- One of the best all-around comics, the antics of the Sluggy crew are funny, epic and occasionally insane. Read this one.
